Our History
THE FAMILY DREAM
THE PARDELLAS RIVERA FAMILY DREAM

Taberna Real was founded with the full enthusiasm of the Pardellas Rivera brothers (Manuel, Cesáreo, José and Abelardo). Led by the eldest brother Manuel and continuing a family tradition of several generations of emigrant cooks, confectioners and waiters, they moved from their native Pontevedra to Madrid to rebuild their lives and return to the origins of the family; to found since 1969 several establishments located in the most emblematic areas of the city.
Giving body and soul, with the unconditional support of his parents Don Salvino Pardellas and Doña Deliciosa Rivera and the respective wives of the brothers, Taberna Real was born in the heart of Madrid de los Austrias, in Plaza de Isabel II, which opened its doors to the public in 1997, coinciding with the inauguration and reopening of the Teatro Real.
The Taberna Real was established in a place known in the 16th century as one of the old quarters used by the Royal Palace service, whose functions consisted of carrying out all the gastronomic tasks that could not be carried out in the palace.
